Greetings Diddlers:
Pleased to work many of our NS RTTY regulars this past weekend. Hope everyone
had a fun time, though we definitely could have used more activity. Gee, that
sounds familiar…
Anyway, remember it’s only 26 weeks until the next running of the NCJ Sprint!
Didn’t do as well as you had hoped? Now’s the time to practice those keyboard
moves. And besides, there’s some big RTTY contest this weekend so you might
as well get everything tuned up before the weekend.
Here are the details for our usual Thursday evening session:
Friday, 22 Sept 2017, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 21 Sept 2017 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: 1805 and up
-- 80/40/20/15/10 +80kHz up from the band edge (start checking those higher
bands!)
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules
-- Mults per band
-- 100W power limit
Please visit http://www.ncccsprint.com/rttyns.html for complete rules and links
to other info. If you find any problems with the web pages, please let me know

For something new (and exciting?), give the live scoreboard a try at

NCCC NA RTTY SPRINT on the web page to display the scores. The Help menu
pulldown will give you the info needed to setup the most common logging
programs.
Don’t forget to report your score to 3830scores.com, and join us at 0300Z on
3610 kHz (+/- a few for ongoing groups) for comments and questions (and dinner
menus).
Diddle diddle,
Ken K6MR
